„Intermedia I: Klangbild – Farbklang“ fand vom 1.-2.6.1985 in Coswig, nahe Dresden statt. Diese Veranstaltung gilt in zahlreichen Geschichten über die autonome bzw. inoffizielle Kunstszene der DDR als wichtiges Ereignis, an dem das ansonsten lose verbundene Netzwerk regionaler Szenen an einem Ort zusammen- und an dem Kunst- und Punkszene aufeinander traf. Musik, Malerei, Film und Tanz/Bewegung sind die Medien der Aufführungen, die als Intermedia, als Collagen in Zeit und Raum, beschrieben werden. Wie lässt sich die Vernetzung der Künste und die temporäre Vernetzung der Akteure anhand eines solchen ‚Knotens’ untersuchen und darstellen?

Dieser Beitrag stellt ein aktuelles Forschungsprojekt vor, dass versucht, sich der Geschichtsschreibung der Performance Art mithilfe performativer Ansätze zu nähern, vor allem denen der Oral History. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei die Frage, auf welche Art und Weise solche Ansätze geschichtliche Zeugnisse produzieren und in Szene setzen. Selbst eine solche performative Aneignung von Performance-Geschichte bleibt dabei immer auf die Artefakte des Archivs angewiesen und erzeugt im Gegenzug wiederum Artefakte, die ins Archiv eingehen.

Anlässlich des zwanzigsten Jahrestages der politischen Wende in Ostdeutschland fanden zahlreiche Ausstellungen statt, die sich mit der Kunstproduktion in der DDR beschäftigten. Ausgehend von Ausstellungen in Berlin, Dresden und Leipzig untersucht der Beitrag Auswahl und Präsentation prozessorientierter Kunstformen.

The thesis aims to analyse the reception of the ancient Greek drama by the Italian scholar Ettore Romagnoli (1871-1938), considering his critical essays, translations, and theatre performances. The mutual interaction of these three aspects represents the methodological approach to understand how Romagnoli conceived the interpretation of Greek theatre and its dramatic production in the modern age. The thesis consists of three parts. The first one analyses Romagnoli’s ideas on classical studies and the modern translations of ancient Greek poetry within the Italian culture in the early 20th Century and in opposition to the positivist approach in the classical philology and the Neo Idealistic Aesthetics. Furthermore, an exam of the entire work of Romagnoli as stage director is offered, along with the reconstruction of a mainly unknow controversy after his dismissal from the National Institute of Ancient Drama. The second part analyses Romagnoli’s academic studies on the hypothetical performance of ancient tragedy and comedy and the evolution of Greek poetry from music. It also identifies the possible influence of these theories within his own translations and performances. The last part deals with two examples of translations for the stage: the "Agamemnon" (1914) and the "Bacchae" (1922). On the basis of theatre translation studies and thanks to Romagnoli’s editions of the two works, both placed at his archive and library in Rovereto and rich of notes by the translator himself, the analysis attempts to examine the hypothetical performability and speakability of the two texts and whether cuts or modifications were introduced during the stage productions. / La ricerca si propone di condurre un esame il più possibile esaustivo dell’opera del grecista Ettore Romagnoli (1871-1938) come esegeta, traduttore e metteur en scène del dramma antico. Grazie all’analisi della reciproca interazione di questi tre aspetti si è tentato di comprendere come il grecista abbia concepito l’interpretazione del teatro greco e ne abbia progettato la ‘reinvenzione’ drammatica. Il lavoro si suddivide in tre parti. Nella prima viene condotta una ricostruzione della carriera di Romagnoli nel contesto storico-culturale di inizio Novecento, analizzando le sue idee sul rinnovamento degli studi classici e sull’aggiornamento delle traduzioni della poesia greca. In questo quadro assumono notevole rilievo le polemiche condotte da Romagnoli in opposizione alle maggiori correnti accademico-culturali dell’epoca: l’estetica crociana e la filologia scientifica. Inoltre, l’analisi prende in esame l’idea di messinscena e le produzioni dirette da Romagnoli a partire dagli spettacoli universitari (1911-1913) fino alle rappresentazioni teatrali svolte a Siracusa e in altri teatri e siti archeologici d’Italia (1914-1937), insieme alla ricostruzione di una terza polemica, definita ‘siracusana’, che coinvolse il grecista in seguito alla sua estromissione dall’Istituto Nazionale del Dramma Antico. La seconda parte prende in considerazione gli studi scientifici e divulgativi di Romagnoli circa la ricostruzione dell’ipotetica performace della tragedia e della commedia di quinto secolo a.C. e l’evoluzione della poesia greca dalla musica, individuando, inoltre, le possibili rielaborazioni di queste teorie all’interno delle traduzioni e degli spettacoli teatrali. Nella terza parte si analizzano le traduzioni di "Agamennone" e "Baccanti" che Romagnoli portò in scena a Siracusa. Si è tentato di valutare, anche sulla base degli studi teorici relativi alla traduzione per il teatro, quanto l’attenzione alla ‘performabilità’ e alla ‘dicibilità’ del testo ne avesse influenzato la composizione oppure se fossero stati introdotti tagli e modifiche in fase di produzione degli spettacoli. Le due edizioni di "Agamennone" (1914) e "Baccanti" (1922) che facevano parte della biblioteca privata di Romagnoli presentano infatti annotazioni dell’autore riconducibili proprio ai suoi allestimenti per gli spettacoli al Teatro greco di Siracusa. Il lavoro ha potuto avvalersi di scritti inediti, articoli di giornale e documenti privati custoditi negli Archivi della Fondazione INDA e presso il Fondo Romagnoli, dal 2016 proprietà dell’Accademia Roveretana degli Agiati e attualmente in catalogazione presso la Biblioteca civica “G. Tartarotti” di Rovereto.

Das Feld der diskursiven und auch normativen Bestimmungen des Archivbegriffes ist in den letzten Jahren in Bewegung geraten. Das betrifft auch Fragen nach dem Zugang zu Geschichten der Aufführungskünste und die Praxis von Archivprozessen und Sammeltätigkeiten in künstlerischen und kuratorischen Kontexten. Dieses Arbeitsbuch fasst Ergebnisse des Forschungsprojekts „Verzeichnungen. Medien und konstitutive Ordnungen von Archivprozessen der Aufführungskünste“ zusammen. Es wurde zwischen 2012 und 2017, gefördert von der DFG, in Leipzig und Berlin durchgeführt. Enthält: Performance im Museum als Historisierung; Performance der Institution Museum; Performancekunst an der Schnittstelle von visueller und darstellender Kunst; Sammeln und Archivieren als Themen der Kunst; US-amerikanische Performancekunst; Performa New York; Rituals of Rented Island New York; Radical Presence/ Black Performance; Karneval und Performance; Performancekunst in/aus Osteuropa; Reenactment und Re-Staging; MUMOK Factory und Tanzquartier Wien; dispositive Konstellationen Museum und Theater / The discursive and normative field of archivalities has considerably shifted in recent years. This shift also concerns questions of access to histories of performance-based arts as well as archival practices both in artistic and curatorial contexts. This workbook presents results of the research project “Records and Representations. Media and constitutive systems of archiving performance-based arts” conducted between 2012 and 2017 in Leipzig and Berlin with funding by DFG (German Research Foundation).

Through two books and a series of video documentations of live performances Mette Ingvartsen makes choreography into a territory of physical, artistic and social experimentation. The Artificial Nature Series focusses on how relations between human and non-human agency can be explored and reconfigured through choreography. By investigating and creating a ‘nonhuman theater’ questions regarding material agency, ecology, natural disasters, the Anthropocene and non-subjective performativity are posed. The resulting reflections are closely related to the poetic principles utilized to create the performances, while also drawing connections to territories outside theater. By contrast, 69 positions inscribes itself into a history of human performance with afocus on nudity, sexuality and how the body historically has been a site for political struggles. By creating a guided tour through sexual performances – from the naked protest actions of the 1960’s, through an archive ofpersonal performances into a reflection on contemporary sexual practice – this solo work rethinks audience participation and proposes a notion of soft and social choreography. The contrasting performative strategiesarticulate a twofold notion of expanded choreography: on the one hand movement is extended beyond the human body by including the agency of nonhuman performers, and on the other hand, movement is expanded into animaginary and virtual space thanks to ‘language choreography’. / <p>LINKS</p><p>https://vimeo.com/164552586</p><p>https://vimeo.com/164558381</p>
